Hi,
I have recently taken a break from ABX and a few weeks with no Rifing.

My question is this.

IS it possible to herx while only on suppliments?

I am currently experiencing all [Cool] the symptoms as I do after Rife, but have not rifed in 3 weeks.

Thanks You,
Peace,

Prayen for all along the gulf!!!
BJG

absolutely yes. BUT, could also be a paradoxical effect of supplements worsening Sx, such as high dose B2, B6,vit. C, particular known supps.,that conduce to production of quinolinic acid by brain macrophages in lyme disease.
Magnesium and niacin(not niacinamide) conduce to lowering quin. acid production--temporarily,at least. I don't know what high dosages of the other B-vits. do.

i don't know about rife's effects.

Sx, weeks out after stopping abx, would also be a function of a rebound of immune sys. cells going to work, after the abx had a suppressive effect on partZ(s) of the immune sys., a side effect of some, if not most, if not all abx.

if i recall correctly, this latter effect of abx on the imm. sys. is one reason for why a lyme-antibody test is performed 6 weeks after stopping the abx.

i don't know what supps. your taking, but if echinacea is one of them, its not good for lyme and auto-immune conditions; its boosts partz(s) of the immune sys., which in lyme are already boosted well into 'outer space.'
